    Got Fluff?

    What is A Fluffy Bunny REALLY?

     

    What a picturesque image … A cute little bunny, all white fur and fluffy as can be…

    “Fluffy Bunny” is a word of many definitions, these are the 2 most common:

    Some say a FB is a cute, young newbie, prancing about the local Pagan events bathed in white light. Someone naïve and overly positive, who thinks the whole world is filled with cute lil’ bunnies and no wolves; pagan who bursts with glee at being pagan and irritates the rest of us with it.

     Others say a Fluffy Bunny is the stubborn pagan who thinks he has all the answers and everyone else is stupid; he kind of guy who never backs down from an argument and is always right.

     Fluffy Bunny can mean anything now though. Especially online in forums and chatrooms, this silly phrase has become the catch-all favourite insult of pagans.

    Let’s all fess up; a “fluffy bunny” is whoever pissed you off last.

    Modern Paganism must be doing pretty well; it’s gotten big enough that we are developing not only our own slang, but our own slang insults.

    Really folks, why couldn’t we just call someone an “ass” instead? “Fluffy Bunny” sounds so stupid, and do we really need to be using it at all? There are plenty of nasty words we can sling at each other when we fail to disagree on some silly point. Ones with punch and pizzaz and only two syllables, like “bastard” or “stupid”, MUCH better than referring to a hoppy little rabbit.

    I mean think about it, why on earth are we using such a stupid phrase, are not most of us poets? Come on people, act your age and just call the next person you get into a dispute with a “jerk-face” instead. It’s more honest and less slandering eh.

    Yeah, ''ass'' is much practical and I can say it faster than I can say ''fluffy bunny''. If I'd have to run after saying it, would be much more practical, not? Then come to think of it, I've never met with a violant fluffy bunny anyway. They tend to fill people with white light and put circles of silver light around themselves. Oh gods I wanna struggle them with their own silver circles!! Ok, that was violant...Ehehe It's unbelivable how esily they can invoke feelings of rage and violance. Probably thats all they can invoke anyway.LOL. Who is frustrated? Moi?r

    Plus, when I think of fluffy bunnies I get a rather fuzzy, warm feeling you know. I wanna squeeze them and sleep with them.

    Btw,you do know I was talking about real rabbits at the second part,right? :)))

    I think I might love you for bringing this up! :D I totally agree with you. On other profile sites with forums or groups, there are bound to be pagan groups. And it seems that Fluffy Bunny is used against anyone who disagree with the core group of posters, because obviously the core groups knows everything.. *sigh*
    You can see why I usually don't sign myself in to these groups, with exception of Covenspace of course, hehe :P

    Anyways, two thumbs up for you! :D Have a wonderful day!

    what is this sarcasm you speak of? ha!

    i am relatively new to online interaction with other pagans..i am not sure how this FB is an insult..i mean i like fluffy bunnies...i like dried up old hags too so it's all relative...

    there are too many creative ways to insult a person if you wanna--one word names just don't do it for me..i prefer to cuss like a sailor--now thats progress!
